| Question: How is the speaker cable attached to the terminal? |
Answer: With press terminals, you press the lever below each slot, insert the bare wire, pin or banana connector, and release the lever to secure the connection.
With speaker terminals, you either partially unscrew the screw terminal, insert the bare wire or spade connector between the screw and the contact, and then tighten the screw. With ring connectors, you remove the screw terminal, place the screw through the ring, and then replace the screw.
